Are you ready to start generating a passive income? Are you interested in launching your clothing brand? Have you heard about the hundreds of millions of dollars Etsy is bringing in every year for the platform's sellers, and you want in on that action? If you've answered yes to any of these questions, this is the perfect course for you.

For a few years straight, I spent a lot of time researching different ways of generating passive income online. Believe me, there are a ton, but the problem is, most of them only bring in nickels and dimes, and I'm looking to make dollars. I started getting frustrated until I came across a print-on-demand and dropshipping business model.

As a graphic artist, I figured I would still have to work hard to create images to place on t-shirts and other products. I was wrong; I discovered that there is plenty of low-cost and free resources that offer commercial licenses so I can use them to streamline my product creation.

Then I needed to figure out how to get noticed...well, I had to learn that the hard way too. After a year of experimenting, I finally found the keys to making consistent sales on Etsy while only putting in about an hour of effort per week.

This course will bring together all of my accumulated research and development into a shiny little package for you. Not only that, but I will also share with you how I am currently scaling my store up from generating around $40 per week in revenue to hundreds per day!

This course is designed for beginners who have little to no experience with print on demand and dropshipping on Etsy but if you are intermediate with this topic, here are a few things you may take away from this course:

  • How much can you really make by letting things run fully automated vs. how much you need to manually intervene to scale up.

  • How to get started with SEO and understanding a couple of misconceptions that you may be practicing with your tags.

  • How to use vector graphic design software to put together designs using pre-rendered assets.

  • How to use Etsy's built-in marketing tools, such as ads, sales, and email followups.

  • What items to add right after t-shirts that are proven to sell.

  • Why start with Etsy rather than Amazon Merch.

I have also completed a workbook that I will be updating from time to time as the market changes. Please use the workbook as your cheat sheet and Etsy store planner.


What is NOT covered in the course:

My goal with this course is just to get you started. You could stop after taking this course, but I recommend diving deeper into some of the topics I cover. Here are some things I may touch on but won't dive deep into.

  • Advance SEO and marketing analyses

  • Marketing (buying ads) on social media

  • Advance graphic design techniques

I look forward to teaching you all that I know!

Patrick is really enthusiastic about the content of his course. This gives me a lot of confidence in what he has to see. I know a fake when I see it. I think Patrick is really sincere about the Print On Demand business. I hope he zooms to the top in Udemy!

By Angela Avakian on 8/3/2024

The course says it was updated on Sept 2023, but the information is pretty outdated. Pretty disappointing, still has some useful information if you can't find anything better. I would have chose another course if I knew course content was from 2020-2021.

By Mae Pamesa on 7/28/2024

I recently completed the course and it was fantastic for beginners. The content is straightforward and easy to follow, making it perfect for those new to POD. The course provides practical tips and clear instructions, making the entire process accessible. Highly recommended for anyone looking to start their POD journey on Etsy!

By Charzaria Ramsey on 3/14/2024

Patrick has a well educated thought out approach in teaching to his students about Print on Demand. Gives you understandable call to action steps to ease you into the materials and online POD. Has insightful comparhansion of strategies and altenative solutions for beginner problems.

The course is very good, you can see that the instructor knows what he is talking about and it is very important to him that we understand everything, so he contacts us that if we did not understand to contact him (I have not yet done so), my only comment is that the course in my opinion does not fit the phone expectation because everything is small and you do not see but otherwise 5 The course is very good.

By Craig A on 11/4/2023

I enjoyed this course showing how to integrate Printful with Etsy and how to automatically push products to your store. The instructor provided bundle of designs we can use on shirts to help get started, thought it was useful to do. I wish we dived more into Etsy tags and more SEO and how to make our products more discoverable in Etsy searches. Overall I did like the course and very good for a beginner like myself.

By Cary Tamayac on 7/30/2023

happy so far, getting a lot of good information i didn't have before and i've had a shopify store didn't do well. wish i had taken this course before. this will be my 2nd attempt at POD. i feel more confident this time around. easy to understand and keep up.

By Linda J. Lorenzo on 2/20/2023

Love the pace at which Patrick teaches, he seems to cover everything in a very understandable way. I especially enjoyed the lecture on Affinity as I have had it for a few years and haven't used it. I will be going back through that video again and again.

By Sergio Scala on 1/2/2022

I started the course without any knowledge on the subject and on my third day I was confident enough to open my first ever Etsy shop and right now I am planning how to put together a good amount of listing to publish. Would not had been possible without the lessons I listened to. I feel I can do more Great lessons. Thank you

By Muhammad Sani Abdullahi on 10/26/2021

The course simply over delivers, as the tutor allows us to look over his shoulder while doing things. It's as if one was in a live classroom. Not only that, the course comes along with tons of resources to help a newbie get started ASAP. Above all that, the course helped me start my Etsy store even before I finished it. I haven't seen a course like this in a long time - a course that takes newbies by the hand and delivers them at the door step of success.
